  You cannot take away the ability to get more health capacity and the Rez Necklaces! Rez necklaces are MUCH better than health potions. They must exist.

Hmm...
Potions and Necklaces will mess up some of my Mines levels...
Maybe he could let someone else borrow them before the Lost Mines.

OK.
Should all of Andrew's World be put into OBW?
If so, should Andrew's World be removed from the Addons page?

That's great!!! It's even better than the name of Misunderestimation!

Yes, I think all of Andrew's World should be added. My opinion is it should be removed from the page, but it's your world.

I don't know if there is a limit or not... ResEdit seems to screw up when there are more than Bob's and the tech and tombs sets. It could just be memory. I just realized I've been putting millions of color images into a game that runs on 256 colors! Big memory waste.

I especially like the Fire Level in Andrew's World. But you should add more scenery, like in Summit Plummit. Unfixable problem: Springs try to bounce fire wall. Does not affect game play, though, so I guess it's ok. I will have to play it again and give more suggestions.

Some people found it extremly hard, but I think it's very easy. Hmm...

Do you think I should remove the part about the PowerComputing PowerTower?

I will "polish" it before adding to OBW.
Compare Andrew's World's "Watch your step" to the one on the OBW page.

How many members have PGP? (It's a great, free, and powerfull encryption program)
It's be very fun to encrypt the files on the OBW page.
We could make a private key for OBW members, and I could send it to all members.
Or else, files could be encrypted for each member's private key.

To get PGP, go to (url="http://"http://www.versiontracker.com/moreinfo.fcgi?id=3430")http://www.versiontr...fo.fcgi?id=3430(/url)

I have a great idea for the Bushisims book:

“” are used for the book, and "" are used for Ferazel.

At the end, Ferazel could say "Wow. That guy's an idiot. I wonder if anyone voted for him, I'll look at the “About George W Bush” section...".
Then, "Hmm, I can't make out what it says at the beginning, but it's legible later on."
“...However, his opponent, Al Gore won the popular vote, and got more votes in the battleground state of Florida.”
"That's good. Could you imagine having that idiot as a president?"

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I have an announcement to make:

All files on the OBW site will be encrypted with PGP from now on.
I will have all the files encrypted sometime today.

There is an official OBW Public/Private key.
All OBW members should download PGP, and make their own private/public keys.
Then, they should send me their PUBLIC KEYS ONLY, and I'll send them the OBW Private/Public keys.

I love that idea for the Bushisms book!

Did I ever send you The Lands Beyond, v.02? :redface:

Health potions are needed in it. I think here is my solution: there should be a guard in front of the Lost Mines who will take all your health potions. After completing the Lost Mines, he will return them to you. In my level (since there will be no escape rings) you will get four health potions. Each of them that you still have when my level is completed will be taken away and refunded in the form of $$$. How much should you recieve per potion?

And a problem: It won't let me get the encrypter. It says I'm not in the U.S., even though I am! How can I get it?

No.
However, please remove the Teraknorn PICT before sending.

hmm, they seem to have changed the form since I got PGP.
If you can't get it from them, you could download AOL Instant Messanger (www.aol.com/aim), and I could send it to you via that.

Oh, shoot! I forgot to remove them on my last levels! :redface:

Oh well. Here it comes. After a few minor adjustments.

I will download that now.

And check the TS2 topic.

ARRRGG!! Listen:

I tried to DL AIM. It worked. Then I had to register. I tried 3 times before the site finally worked right. I had typed in my birthdate wrong, and it said I couldn't register. Then I tried again. Apparently it uses your email to remember you. So I had to try to setup a new adress to get it. About 5 things went wrong with that. Anyway, I still can't get PGP! :mad: Why must it be encoded? Can't you just keep it the way it was? I'm going to go crazy if I can't figure out how to DL this thing!

Remove them?
Why have them there in the first place?
You only need it if you have more than one level in a file.

I'm sorry you're having a hard time getting it.
Maybe I could use stuffit to "encrypt" it with the OBW password, upload it somewhere, and post the link?

I'm uploading it to my iDisk now, but it's going very slowly.

Hmm, there are the following options:

1. Leave them un-encrypted
2. Use PGP with an OBW Public/Private key
3. Encrypt the levels as a .sda (Self-Decrypting-Archive, doesn't need PGP to decrypt, like an SEA), but each one would be about 100kB.
4. Bundle all the levels in one package and encrypt with an OBW Public/Private key
5. Bundle all the levels in one package and make it an SDA (which would be about 172kB)

#5 seems good, but it wouldn't be as fun as #2 or #4.

I'm uploading an SDA of PGP encrypted with the OBW password in three segments.
I'll post here when it's done.

Part 2 of 3 is almost done now........

------------------
“His own government suing him, that’s not chocolate sundae.” –- Bill Gates' father

It's done uploading!

The passphrase (password) is the OBW password I e-mailed to everyone.
Here are the segments:

When you first run PGP, it may be a little confusing.
I recommend reading through "Intro to Crypto" (in the Documentation folder) when you have time.

Generate a public/private key pair, drag your key to a simpletext window, and e-mail me (or post here) the text.
Then I'll send you the OBW private/public key.
